We are fortunate to have a “tasting team” at Rio Coco Beans, who help us evaluate our coffees. One member of the team is my friend Jon Hamilton, who has a finely tuned palate when it comes to coffee.
Jon began ordering large bags of Nicaragua Altisimo Light, and Negro Fino for his office. I went to visit Jon one afternoon, and noticed a big potato chip canister sitting by his coffee maker. When I asked what was inside, he opened it and I saw dark oily beans mixed with light brown dry beans. Jon was mixing the two and serving it to his staff. I tried a cup- Wow! What an incredible cup of coffee!
We thought "These two coffees make a very special blend" - thus the name “Los Dos”.
Photo: Our Rio Coco Chief, Michael with Truman Cunningham. Together in 1986 they began Project Ezra, a school project to the Miskito People of the Lower Coco River.
I lived and worked with Truman for 32 years until he suddenly died of a heart attack. Truman was a world changer, through his efforts, ten of thousands of Miskito children receive a good education over these decades.
As it is in coffee, "light roast" and "dark roast" often are sweet combinations in cross-cultural ministry!
